WorkOS
The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.
Why not let the upstream application developer decide, rather than choosing for them?
This is one of the downsides of using C/C++ rather than a modern programming language like Rust or Zig. In the former case, the system maintainers reach across the table and change the settings, despite what the actual application developer has chosen. In the latter, the upstream developers' choices are respected more, mainly because the tooling is less standardized.
